Notes

Studio recording, 2010s. Andy James is known for using his ESP LTD AJ-1 signature guitar with EMG 57/66 pickups and a Peavey 6505+ amp for his signature high-gain rhythm tones. No direct source confirms the exact gear for 'War March' riff, but this is consistent with his documented studio setup for this era and genre.

Difficulty

The riff requires advanced picking speed, tight palm muting, and precise synchronization, making it challenging even for experienced metal guitarists.
